Wen Yanbo and his entourage, as well as the Japanese envoy, all left. Intimidated by the prestige of Wen Yanbo's arrival, the people of Taohuazhai did not dare to stop them.

"This guy ......" his cottage was stepped on leisurely, and finally he had to endure the other party to leave, and Zhou Tong, the owner of the peach blossom village, was so angry that his cheeks hurt.

Originally, there were few strong people, but after going to a Li Zhong, his strength was above Lingzun, and he was the only one who could get by. Zhou Tong thought depressedly, look at other places, how brave and strong Deng Long of Erlong Mountain is, needless to say, among the four powerful subordinates under him, which one's cultivation is not above the Spirit Venerable?

Look at Qingfeng Mountain again, Yan Shun, Wang Ying, Zheng Tianshou, there are three leaders above Lingzun alone, and there are some master subordinates.

And what about your own peach blossom village?

Zhou Tonghuan looked around, and he didn't see anyone who could lift his spirit, except for that guy.

His eyes were fixed on Ruan Zun, and he didn't move for a long time.

"Owner of the village, what's wrong?" Ruan Zun hurriedly put the big clam box into the payment ring, and Zhou Tong's eyes made him feel quite uncomfortable.

"Uh, that, that Brother Ruan, don't go back to Taolin Town, stay in Taohuazhai to help me. Zhou Tong said.

"Stay in Peach Blossom Village?"

"Not bad. Now is the time for the cottage to employ people. Zhou Tong said seriously, "Peach Blossom Mountain is the weakest among the three mountains. If it weren't for the support of the production of elixir, I am afraid that it would have declined long ago. You stay in the cottage, and I will promote you to be the second leader of the cottage. ”

From the medicine warehouse manager of the affiliated town under the mountain, to the second leader of the general village at once, this progress is quite large.

Ruan Zun said pretentiously: "This is not good, I have only been in the village for a few days, and I have no credit." Moreover, some people also have opinions about me...... "As an enterprising and ambitious guy, if he can hold power, of course he can't ask for it, but he still has to make a show on the face."

"Whoever dares to have an opinion on you, I will make the decision for you!" Zhou Tong said very resolutely, "Actually, after the incident of Chen Aliu last time, you have contributed to the cottage, and I have the heart to promote you, but it is just because of the face of some people." Now, you can enter the Peach Blossom Pond and return safely, and you can also meet the fish king at the bottom of the pool, which is enough to make the people up and down the village shocked! Where can anyone object!"

When You Mei heard that Ruan Zun could be promoted, she was also happy in her heart, and hurriedly persuaded: "Ruan Guan, that Brother Ruan, now that the government army is pressing, Taohuazhai really needs the help of talented people, you are both civil and military, and you will definitely be able to assist the owner of the village to revitalize the cottage!"

Ruan Zun was waiting for someone to persuade him, so that he could take advantage of the situation. Hearing her say this, she pretended to hesitate a little, then nodded and said, "Since this is the case, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." Peach Blossom Village has the grace to take me in, and I should do my best to help the village revivenation!"

Zhou Tong was overjoyed, patted him on the shoulder, squeezed his hand hard, and said, "Good brother!"

After agreeing with Ruan Zun on this matter, Zhou Tong turned to Shi Jin again: "Brother Shi Jin, you and my Peach Blossom Mountain have a deep relationship, why don't you also take advantage of this time to return to my mountain?

Zhou Tong is now desperate to pull people in order to make the village strong.

Shi Jin said: "Lord Zhouzhai, you forgot, I am now the person who is the helmsman of the Qingzhou branch of the Qiuyue League. You let me enter Peach Blossom Mountain, this is a little inappropriate. ”

Zhou Tong said: "What's wrong with this? The Qiuyue League originally intended to let me join the alliance, but in fact, when I thought about it later, it was not bad to join the alliance, and when the forces of all parties were united, how could the government dare to easily offend us? I think that now, Qingzhou has the Heavenly Taoist Sect, the Qiuyue Alliance, and there are Erlong Mountain, Qingfeng Mountain, Peach Blossom Mountain, Baihu Mountain, and so on, as long as we work together, how can the Youth Army and the Qingzhou Mansion be able to win us? If Taohua Mountain joins the alliance, then it is natural for you to return to Taohua Mountain. ”

Shi Jin was noncommittal.

Zhou Tong hurriedly said: "I'll send a letter to your helmsman later, explaining this matter! I don't believe it, he will not agree!"

......

That night, Zhou Tong directly left Ruan Zun, Shi Jin, as well as Lu Tianhao, Lie Nihuang and others in the cottage, held a feast, and treated each other with hospitality.

Ruan Zun and Lu Tianhao haven't seen each other for a long time, and the two of them drank happily and drank frequently. Zhou Tong has the heart to unite everyone, and he is also very bold. And a woman's Lie Nihuang, on this occasion, seemed to be infected by them, and drank very happily, even a bowl of underground belly, and her eyes were straight when she looked at Youmei.

That night, everyone was very drunk and stayed in the welcome building in the village.

Zhou Tong really didn't let Ruan Zun go back to Taolin Town, and directly sent someone to pick up his bedding and luggage and go up the mountain. And Zhou Tong originally intended to adjust You Mei to the mountain, but Chen Aliu had just died in the medicine warehouse in Taolin Town, and it was when there was a shortage of people, she was proficient in pharmacology, and she couldn't leave it for a while, so she had to be put in the town temporarily.

The next day, Zhou Tong summoned the leaders of the village, about twenty-four or five people, and announced in the peach blossom hall that Ruan Zun would be transferred to the second leader of the peach blossom village.

Whether the big and small leaders were convinced or not, they had to step forward in turn and express their allegiance to him.

"Brother Ruan Zun, my brother and the second leader of the village, you must obey his orders as you obey me. Zhou Tong said, "I said ugly things in front, if anyone violates the yang and yin, or secretly makes a stumbling block, and embarrasses the second leader of Ruan, I will not spare it!"

Everyone said they didn't dare.

In this way, Ruan Zun became the second leader of Taohua Village by mistake. Zhou Tong originally intended to worship his brothers in order to deepen the relationship between the two, but Ruan Zun said that he already had two sworn brothers, and if he bowed again, he must first inform the two of them.

As soon as Zhou Tong heard it, he felt reasonable, so he put the matter down for the time being. Later, he divided the tasks with Ruan Zun. Zhou Tong mainly grasped the conquest, looting, money and grain of the cottage, that is, the power of the cottage, and Ruan Zun was mainly responsible for the elixir of the cottage.

Elixir is the economic lifeline and lifeline of Taohuazhai, and it is also very important, if you are not a very trustworthy person, you will not be assigned to this position.

"The owner of the village, that Taolin Town Mayor Zhou Da, isn't it your cousin, why don't you send him to manage this matter?" Ruan Zun also understood, so he made it clear directly, "I'm still an outsider after all." ”

"He can't manage a town well, how can he have the spare energy to manage such a big thing. Zhou Tong said, "Don't say anything about outsiders or outsiders, they are all your own brothers, brothers who eat meat and drink wine together, they are all your own family!

"Moreover, there are so many brothers in Taohuazhai, many of them are not locals, as the so-called five lakes and four seas, employ people on the basis of merit, rather than nepotism. If I reuse Zhou Da, then looking up and down at him, won't they all think that I am nepotistic, and how can I manage the village well? And you are not a local, and I am not related to me, they see that you can grasp the power of the cottage, and they will naturally have a kind of desire to serve the cottage in order to achieve ascension. ”

"In a way, your example, for them, has a good motivating effect. Zhou Tong said seriously.

This guy is also quite thoughtful.

Ruan Zun thought to himself.
